now i'm a great believer we get the government we deserve. if the people of virginia and other americans sit it out and leaf it up to the handfuls of people who want this government to be concentrated in a few, we will get that government. but if we work at the grass roots and go and knock on doors and talk to our neighbors and co-workers and those cranky uncles we all v the folks you don't want to have that conversation with over thanksgiving dinner but to bring them into the conversation about common cause and common destiny. we are about everybody, not about turning our backs on half the country. we are about everybody and liffletting everyone up and that is why we stant with president obama. so i want to especially thank all the volunteers, those who are here and those whom you represent knowing that you are going to get out and shake those hands and knock on those doors and make those phone calls. you especially because it is about a generation to come. it's about our responsibility in our time to do what we can to make a better country.
